Little Shake

So I went to get my tires rotated and balanced, I go to drive on the highway and my car now shakes real bad. I bring it back and they fix it a little but say since I have 20" wheels instead of the stock 18"s I need some kind of ring to make it fit better for it will not shake at all. What "ring" is he talking about? A spacer? thanks for the help.

Whoever sold/installed the rims should have told you about the rings. Usually aftermarket wheels have a larger hub area and you purchase adapter rings to fit your hub. You want this because the load of the road will transfer tothe hub and not the lugs (can snap lugs...dangerous) and because it will also center the wheel



We have a 66.1mm hub, unsure what the ID is of your wheel though. You'll have to figure that out on your own.

For your own safety, get on this quickly

Are we allowed to post the name and address of places that provide terrible service so that we know not to go to them?
